Haven't been riding the last few days as work and going out has made a slug of me, Ive been just wiped. Friday morning just got away from me so I didn't get to hop on the bike , had to go to work at 1:30, got off at 9:30 so Kim and I went down a couple blocks from our Grand Apartment to "Fresco II", a lil' Italian joint. Our neighbor's band had a gig there. Not knowing what to expect we walked in and the little two room restaurant was hopping, the band did mostly covers but they were tight as shit. More importantly BEER! Finally I have found a bar that serves more than Bud, Fat Tire, and Tecate. They actually had some I never heard of.....something that is starting to get hard these days. I tried a couple out and really enjoyed "Xingu" try it if you can find it and the jury is still out on the other I had " Unibroue, La fin du monde" (The end of the world). This was really yeasty and I am still pondering whether it was really disgusting or so interesting that I like it....guess I will have to go back to test more ($6/25oz bottle)...just a heads up thats really cheap out in these parts. It turns out living in Cali is quite expensive.
Onward, I had to be to work at 7:30 the next morning...sucks going to work swing shit Friday to day shift Saturday, especially with beer and bands in-between. Either way as soon as I got down with work Kim and I took a nice little hour drive across the desert to Hesperia for one of my new buddies/co-worker's sons B-day. He turned 2 and you never turn down an invitation from his family....the food.... always phenomenal. Ok so I have only eating with them twice but let me tell the first time his father deep fried some fish and made the best fish tacos I have ever had, actually correction..The BEST TACOS PERIOD I have ever had. Pssst he's Mexican, they know what they're doing.
Lastly today I was in at work at 6:30 and got home and was wiped from the past days festivities so I took a nap. Turns out I slept to long and no onger have enough daylight for a proper ride soooo if I can't ride what do we do, EAT! I'm currently waiting for the coals on the grill to heat up and we're gonna through some salmon on cedar plank with some garlic potatoes. The eating is good in the desert. The October training is off to a slow start. ON the plus side the weather is now cooperating, 60's today. Evenings in the 50's/40's good thing I kept them Revo Arm warmers.
